    • Its okay - It happens. And this is why DCAs  user every trick in the book to try and make you crack.  Now its time to come back.    Im not sure how to proceed if Im honest if they have issued a Letter Of Claim.  Only as You could complain to Oakbrook and they still proceed with Legal Proceedings, but I dont know if that would help or hinder the legal proceedings if they began down that avenue.  I know a FOS complaint wouldnt stop Legal Action and probably run along side it.  But I guess a judge would view a disputed balance with the original creditor as cause for concern whether the DCA's claim is valid?    A bit of a muddle.     
    • That is superb. To answer your question - Dear Mr Dhaliwal Change the sentence - As our disabilities were ignored and disregarded for the time taken I believe this is discrimination against us ... To - As our disabilities were ignored and disregarded for the time taken I believe this is discrimination against us contrary to the Equality Act 2010. Iceland have always been useless, not only in your case but in others, but I think if they realise they are breaking the law it will encourage them to act. I also think the letter is overlong and you could lose the paragraph - I cannot afford any unfair charges of this kind as I am severely struggling financially. I cannot work and am a carer for my disabled Son who also has a mental and mobility disability. I obviously do not have any disposable income and am in debt with my bills. So its an absolute impossibility for me to pay this incorrect charge - as the main points are made elsewhere.

    • I want to add my 2 cents here...  The purchase of this debt, Perch Group dont absolve themselves of liabilities from the Original Creditor. They should be responsible for dealing with this complaint in response to an Irresponsible Lending dispute.  If the balance is disputed as such in that way - Then they should be referring to the Original Creditor where applicable.    Also if your complaint was written in a way where a template wasnt used or it was rewritten to a similar effect where it wasnt recognisable - Then you probably would have stood a better opportunity at it not getting rebuffed.  To be honest those - Perch and TM Legal are a waste of Oxygen and will say anything to get you to pay.    Ditto on the template. Where did you find it?  Please keep in mind we have to unravel what you have done till now and help build a formal response.

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

Hi Princess - your time frame for your claim is exactly the same as mine! I filed for the judgement yesterday only to find out this morning that Lloyds acknowledged the claim on the 4th! Darn was so close! Fingers crossed that you have managed to get your judgement.

Hi Guys,

 

Well oh my word!!!! Things have changed slightly!!! I knew I spoke to soon!!

 

Having filed the Default Judgement on the day Lloyds' time was up I didn't realise that it takes until 10am the following day for my information to be accepted by Moneyclaim.

 

Lloyds filed an acknowledgment at the 11th hour!!!

 

I can't believe it!!

 

what a pain!

 

Well I will still win lol.

 

Biscuit - I just reread your post!!! They are b*ggers aren't they! Keep us posted! As will i!

You did well though Princess. I guess that is going to be their ploy, to give you longer to "stew" over things and to get you all flustered and annoyed.

 

Stay strong. We are all wishing you well in your claim.

Just make sure you have a parachute account Merly, it will be ok and just follow the steps. You are welcome to use my notes here as reference along the way if you get stuck, etc.

 

Good luck!

 

On another note:- If anyone is having trouble with the Particulars of Claim here is mine (without my details):-

 

Particulars of Claim

 

Claimant has account 00000000 with Defendant from approx 00/00/00 conducted on their standard terms and conditions. Claimant is claiming the return of money taken by Defendant in charges over 6 years plus interest they have levied on those charges. The Defendant’s charges are a disproportionate penalty and therefore unenforceable as they are contrary to common law. They are also invalid under the Unfair Contracts Terms Act 1977 s.4 and under the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999.Para.8 and sch.2.1.e.In the event that the charges are not a penalty they are unreasonable within the meaning of the Supply of Goods and Services Act 1982 s.15.Defendent has declined justification of charges despite repeated requests. Claimant claims interest under Sec.69 of the County Courts Act 1984 at a rate of 8% a year from 00/00/00 to 00/00/00 of £000.00 and also interest at same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £0.11p.

 

Some abbreviations, etc. but it fitted in the gap provided and the claim has been accepted.

 

Hope this helps some of you.

 

Hi princess, I am wandering about your wording, particularly:

 

of 8% a year from 00/00/00 to 00/00/00 of £000.00 and also interest at same rate up to the date of judgment or earlier payment at a daily rate of £0.11p.

 

What dates did you enter? Was it 6 years from todays date up to todays date? Also, where did you get the 11p a day from?

regards,

Intersimi 11p is the daily interest rate in monetary value. This is how you calculate it

Lets assume your claim is £100

so what you do is divide 8% (yearly interest rate) by 365

0.08/365= 0.022 (I think, I don't have calculator and the one on pc is rubbish)

then you multiply your claim £100*0.022

which should give you your daily rate.

Hi All,

 

Thank you all for continuing support and input - it really helps!

 

Lotta Littlies - Lloyds have now got a further 14 days to respond or prepare a defence - although I am hoping for a similar response to yourself!

 

Kotum45 - I didn't alert them at all with this apart from of course my template letters, so they may have just pulled their finger out and got there at the last minute or did it malciously, I don't know.

 

Paulclarkson1985 - Thank you so much for your words - I'm not down at all though, I'm a positive person and Mrplan74 and I are helping each other through the steps. Its not really traumatic at all! And with the knowledge and the information and support gained from this site - its all good. And we will WIN! As will all of you and those who are reading and wondering if its possible to get their charges back.

 

 

On a funny note - I recieved my Lloyds Acknowledgment from Moneyclaim yesterday when I got home form work and with it were TWO other peoples!!! Half of it stapled to mine!!! Moneyclaim MUST be busy to make a mistake like this!! Will have to send those back quicksmart I am sure the rightful owners will be wanting those! - One is definately NOT a 'bank charge' one and I'm not sure about the other.

Princess of Power!

Hello your Highness!

 

I have been pondering what direction your plight had taken to date.... I have been watching intently, as have others, obviously!!!

 

Goes without saying GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!

 

On a more personal note i am a few steps behind you so i know what to expect on the horizon. It's only with the virtual support from other facing the same problem as us, that carries me forward with this situation, normally i would n't have thought that taking on the banks would pay dividends but now.... the world is OUR oyster!

 

Carp'e dium ( well you know what i mean anyway!

 

 

As before ....

 

I wish you well.

 

Kevin

Good Luck All...
